Desert Hot Springs Fiscal Stability/Local Control Measure on November Ballot. Input On Services requested

On July 2, 2024, the Desert Hot Springs City Council placed the Desert Hot Springs Fiscal Stability/Local Control Measure” on the November ballot for voter consideration.

If approved by a majority (50%+1) of Desert Hot Springs Voters, the Desert Hot Springs Fiscal Stability/Local Control Measure would enact a 1 ¢ local sales tax until ended by voters, providing a source of locally controlled funding that cannot be taken by the state.

Regardless of the outcome of the election, Desert Hot Springs is continuing to solicit input on services, so that we may prioritize the local services our residents value.

As our most recent budget adoption shows, the city cut more than $3 million from our most recent budget to achieve a balanced budget.

Please take a moment to join the conversation and provide YOUR priorities for a strong, safe Desert Hot Springs.
